Bummed Vent
So I don’t want to come off as angry or anything, because it’s not my place to be angry. Although I will admit, I’m a bit upset. I was supposed to DJ for my friend’s sister’s 18th birthday, the payment for which was going to cover my trip to Vegas for EDC (I slashed my price by 50% in this case, friends and family discount. It’s a modest amount, and even on a...

Do you Believe in Social Classes?
Now this is a rather strange question, as it can mean more than a few things. The question could be asking if I believe in the validity of “social classes” (which I’m assuming means classes like sociology, anthropology, and the like). It can also mean if I believe in social classes, like upper, middle, and lower class (and all the in-betweens). It may refer to a belief in...

What's your Biggest Piss Off/Pet Peeve? Why?
I’ve listed a few of my pet peeves here, here, and here. Out of those, I don’t think I can really pick one as first choice. Mainly because I’ve gotten rid of the connections with the people who are constantly exhibiting passive-aggression, or the 12-year olds who belt IDGAF every 5 minutes, or the individuals who fantasize about their haters. I guess in the one, the one thing...

What do you Honestly Think About your Looks? Do...
Honestly, I think I’m on the high end of average. I know that I’m not unattractive, but at the same time, I’ve rarely ever felt like, insanely hot or anything of the sort. It doesn’t cross my mind much, though. I’m actually grateful I’m not one of those stereotypically gay men who fusses too damn much over their physical appearance. I can proudly say I’ve...

What Would be the Hardest and Most Fearful Thing...
The hardest thing in my life is continuing to grow up. I’m no longer a kid, as much as I can’t seem to accept it. The more days go by, the more I long to go back, to a simple time where I didn’t have to worry about disease, money, food, projects, grades, even getting through the day. It was as simple as waking up. The final facet of growing up, at least for me, is coming up...

Do you Think You’d be Able to Put Together and...
Not gonna lie, I’ve been told and I am very aware of my wit. While not always on point nor 100% sharp, I know that it’s there and it’s a trait of mine I’m rather fond of. Snappy comebacks are abound, with the occasional decent joke. That being said, I do not think I’d do good as a stand-up act, as I would be extremely nervous, and having to come up with things that...

Are you into the Green Movement? Should Being...
Unaware as I am about an actual “green movement,” I’m definitely starting to get into being more eco-friendly a lot more this year as part of my new year’s resolutions. As I expressed in the previous challenge post (and in the post within that post), I really believe we have to do more to help ease the planet of the enormous carbon footprint we are slamming into its face...

What do you Think our Planet Would Look Like in 10...
I recently wrote a rather lengthy, thorough blog about my concerns for the planet, one that was probably fed by the phobia of the apparent doomsday to strike at the end of the year. Although I still vehemently believe nothing is going to happen (though I would be lying if I didn’t say I was a bit nervous about it), come 10 years, it’ll be as though we went through some apocalyptic...

What are you Least Attracted to in the...
Oh, let me count the ways (it’s a bit sad that there’s always a lot more to say negatively about a topic than positively). The way that boys are only interested in the chase, and as soon as you let them in, they lose all fascination towards you, no matter how long you made them wait. And when it comes to gay boys, the way that no one wants to make friends, it’s either a fuck, a...

What are you Attracted to Most in the...
The way I put it, as many others do, is that looks will attract me. I’m not gonna lie, I’m a total sucker for a gorgeous face. But if the brains that come with that face have gone rotten, then there’s no reason to stick around. And that has totally happened before, where I was completely turned off by the complete lack of click beyond an attractive face. I like to feel that...

What Bugs you Most About your Generation? What do...
Before I basically repeat all the points I made in this post, as I still believe this are all essentially valid and true, I want to also say that from what I’ve learned, a generation is separated by 25 years. What bugs me the most about the generation I’m a part of is how much we don’t give a fuck about things we should actually be giving two fucks about (it also pisses me off...

How Would you Describe your Clothing Style? Is...
Back in high school, during my psychology class one day, our teacher had us pass around a paper with only our names on it, and we had to write a compliment about the person on the page anonymously. And there was no way of knowing who wrote what aside from recognizing certain people’s handwriting, and some of the more obvious notes written. When I got my paper back, two people had written...

How Would you Describe the City you Live in? How’s...
Back when I was a child, this town as alright. It was not the safest haven, hell I just talked about how my sister and I were almost kidnapped, but it wasn’t the cop-less, scary hell it is now. It was a diamond in a rough if anything. It was once we lost our financial security and declared bankruptcy that everything quickly went straight to hell. Now, it’s more ghetto than before, very...

To you, What is Art? What Classifies Something as...
To me, in it’s simplest, most raw form, art is merely expression, and as such, it can take on so many different and diverse mediums, any the artist desires. The first person to put rock to stone was probably thought to be a madman, or a genius (though there’s not much difference between the two, to be frank), and we’ve evolved so much since those cave painting days. Everyone...

Confession #24
I really have not been on top of these, I’m sorry. Well I’ll leave a doozy: about 13 or so years ago, right around the time where there was a rash of kidnappings in Vallejo, my sister and I nearly became victims of that spree. This guy asked us if we needed a ride home while we were walking from school (it was only a few blocks away). Lucky, my mom was just around the corner, and we...

What are your Thoughts on Globalization?
I’m ashamed to admit that I had to google what globalization is and ask my boyfriend as well. I’m usually good with opinions over matters such as these, but I haven’t had an econ class in about 3 years, so I’m a bit rusty to the basic ins and outs of this term. From what I discerned, the basic concept of globalization is the integration of cultures, countries and peoples...
